  Description     : Caching and cache-filling library, a replacement for memcached

Groupcache is a caching and cache-filling library, intended as a
replacement for memcached in many cases.

Like memcached, groupcache shards by key to select which peer is
responsible for that key.  Unlike memcached, groupcache does not
require running a separate set of servers, comes with a cache
filling mechanism, and contains some other useful features.
